easter fun

hey dolls

happy easter! so today is easter sunday and i've had a lovely day with my family so far, so i thought i'd share some pictures of my day. i'm on my new ipad and my computer's broken so i cant edit this or anything, but owell :) i tried putting up a birthday post as it was my birthday in march, but it got deleted and then wouldn't upload, so i'll try and do it soon.
anyway i hope everyone has had a lovely weekend and i'll see you soon!

postcards

Hey dolls
so when i was younger my walls of my bedroom used to be covered in cringey posters of bands, etc. but over the summer i went around Europe with my family, and i thought it would be a nice idea to collect postcards along the way! i didn't really have a purpose for this other than the fact that i wanted to look back at all the different places i'd been. and recently i've filled a wall with all of the cards i bought. it's a bit random but i love how it turned out so i thought i'd share it on here. i've got cards from a variety of landmarks and places, and i plan on doing it if i travel in the future!

my favorite lip products of 2011

Hey dolls
so before 2011 i never ever used to wear lipstick as i wasn't to keen on makeup. but at the the start of last year i come across the rimmel section in boots, and this one lipstick caught my eye. ever since, i've become obsessed with lip products, and i honestly dont think i could now live without some of my favorites.


i think the elf products are my overall favorites. probably because of the price, but i also love their huge colour range. the matte lip pencils are amazing, ive fallen in love with every single colour and they have been a staple throughout 2011. they only cost £3.50 so i ordered more than one! and elf are always having offers on and free posting, so they usually come in even cheaper. i have natural, tea rose and praline.



i also have a few lipsticks from their mineral range, and my favorites are party pink, runway pink and cheerful cherry. these are also £3.50 and i think they're amazing for the price!




when ASOS we're having a huge sale, i ordered a few NARS products. one being a 'velvet gloss lip pencil' in club mix. this is a really dark purpley colour which is really lovely for the winter. this is the only nars lip product i own, so i'll be looking into purchasing more in the future!



i bought 'infrared' from topshop after all the hype on youtube, and it really is a lovely colour which i loved throughout autumn of 2011. topshop lipsticks are £8, which is quite expensive but i think it was worth it as this colour is really different to others that i own.



when i was in paris in the summer, i went into sephora for the first time. i picked up a maniac mat lipstick in mat 07; it's a lovely matte lipstick which has orangey peach tones which was really lovely in the summer, and i love the smell!



at the beginning of 2011 i really loved a rimmel lipstick in spotlight beige. i wore it everyday to school, and couldn't get enough of it. and when i went to repurchase the lipstick, i couldn't find it anywhere and they were sold out online, so i went without it for about 5 months. but recently i found it in my local superdrug so i stocked back up and i still love it :)



I came across the brand sleek in the summer. i love a lot of their products, especially the lipsticks. i own quite a few as they're really reasonably priced. the one pictured is 'bare all' which is a matte lipstick, and it's an everyday peachy-colour. 



pictures are taken and edited on my iPhone, hence why they're not amazing quality! hope you've had an amazing weekend!

oh sunday..

Hey dolls
So it's sunday, and like most other people i just lounge around being boring all day. I basically just jump into my onesie and watch telly, paint my nails and do other uninteresting stuff like homework.
I've watched 4 episodes of pretty little liars.. because i am so addicted and i have recently bought the boxset aha! And i also watched the new series which has started called 'new girl' with Zooey Deschanel; which was actually really good, and i've found an undying love for her.
but yeah this probably isn't interesting so wusindndndjsbyanaksm
i'll try and do more interesting posts like reviews/hauls and so on in the near future, but as for now it's sunday and that is the only thing which is relatively appealing aha-
hope everyone has had a lovely weekend,
love ellie. xo

yey

Hey dolls
I've recently moved into my sisters old room which is about 3 times as big as my old one, meaning its been alot harder to fill. So for christmas i was chuffed to bits when i recieved the presents from my sister.. she's such a doll.
It's mainly hearts and things to hang on my wall, as i've already got a huge collection and i love them :)
She also made me a sock monkey, as she loves doing anything crafty! All i can say is that it is a.m.a.z.i.n.g.
Her boyfriend also made me a leather notebook, which is lovely as i was in need of one anyway and its so nicely made!
love ellie.xo
